LEO LEWIS

[Homedawg]

I think he'll stay through at least 2015. Even if he does leave, I think he'll stay through signing day.

Why would he stay thru signing day if he leaves? I think he comes back, but if he doesn't, he will be gone before signing day.

I really doubt we have Collins back next season. He has HC written all over him

Disagree with HC

He isn't leaving.

If he did, he would leave well before signing day.

......said half the fans last year.

Collins is like an Ole Miss recruit - paid well. I will not concede that he will be leaving after the 2014 season. In fact, I foresee him earning $750k in 2016 as our D.C. That is probably more than a head coach's salary in the type of program that would likely pursue him at the end of this season. Will he be a head coach one day? Absolutely. In 2015 though? I don't think so. He has a good thing going at State right now.

[Clanga]

What if he is just happy with Starkville. I mean everyone use to talk about how Mullen going to leave first chance he got. I just think they both like where they are at. Collins is young and will be a head coach one day, but perhaps he just doesn't want to leave this monster of a defense he and Mullen have made. All of this is pure speculation, but so is everything said above. I think we have him at least through his contract extension.

Well said, Joe

Will Muschamp and Ellis Johnson say what up doe.

[whosyourdawgy]

Hey I'll tell u what. Let's talk about our coaches leaving before the freaking season even starts and put stuff out there for others to use against us in recruiting ****ing brilliant.

[PassInterference]

Muschamp was a DC a long time before becoming a HC. Same with Johnson. Chavis. There are plenty of very good, well-paid DCs across the country.

Do not assume because a guy has proven to be a good DC for 1-2 years that he is instant head coach material.

Yeah I was referring to Muschamp and Johnson's lack of success as a HC.

I'm not saying he'll be a good head coach, but he will be a head coach IMO. Collins' defense this season is gonna be one of the best in the sec. He will be a very hot HC candidate

If we wanna turn the corner as a program, we need cood's getting HC jobs and players leaving early for the draft. I want the type of season that leads to Collins getting a HC job and I hope dak is good enough to leave early and get drafted 1st round (doubtful right now).

Why would Collins be a hot HC candidate? Is Chavis a hot HC candidate?

A little off topic but he says OM is recruiting him the hardest. Mullen and Co. can't let this happen. OM will know no boundaries in this recruitment

He's not going out of state. We can't take anything for granted, but we're in good shape with Lewis. Ole Miss is recruiting him harder because they have to - they are behind.

So apparently other people are recruiting Lewis, Adams and Danley harder than we are. Seems to be a recurring theme.

Absolutely blows my mind. These are 3 must have guys. We shouldn't be out-recruited due to effort

Exactly, if a kid picks another school because they like what the other school has to offer better than what MSU has I can live with that. However, if we start losing guys we need badly to become an upper tier SEC program because we are being outworked or not "showing enough love" then that will be disturbing.
